I havn't been around for a few days. Kind of tired-- kind of grumpy. Work is being gay, and beta is down. Life is terrible. Kill me now. Not only that, I had to pay 1200$ to fix my motorbike, because some drunk guy hit it-- other than that.. most of the stuff I have been doing-- is in my video blog.
**Bullshit related to Starcraft**
I spent a lot of time on Youtube after the beta went down, and found a few cool videos.. I felt like-- sharing it with you guys. Its totally-- in my video blog though. Here it is.
Dear person-who-makes-youtube-videos. Please stop soft-cutting. I literally CANT watch your videos without feeling nauseous. I'm not trying to be derogatory, just giving a suggestion
I have a pretty gnarles speak impediment-- it would be even harder for you to watch it if I didn't-- and they would be like 10 minutes long.
I can see if there is a way I can just link the audio together a little better-- but as for the soft cuts, and me jumping around looking like a robot-- I can try to fix.
Compared to my very first attempts, and like-- talking to the camera, the more comfortable I get the longer my takes get-- I just need to find comfort first.
Sorry for making you nauseous, but please allow me a little grace..
Edit-- maybe the next video I do, I won't edit it-- and see what you guys think.

LOL
You didn't present yourself in the highest standards of video communication, I demand you to clean up your act mister!
I am going to make a video without any soft cuts-- I will try to chop the segments, with hard cuts-- and jump cuts... And if my speech impediment kicks in, you guys will have to deal with it--
Just don't give me any "T-t-t-t-t-today Junior!"...
i'm prolly gonna get flamed for asking this but wtf is soft cutting. googled it and didnt come up with anything and cant deduce anything from previous posts other than it is something about the video... and idra does have BM when he gets beat embarassingly.
edit: i just realized what it was after i watched the video again and all the annoying "cuts." rofl. yeah, you should get rid of that. lol
It started with some guy having some problems about the camera. Then i stoped. Seriously, i don't know why you thought it was a good idea to include it in your video...
seriously, your material is old that 8 bit starcraft thing came out months ago.your videos for starcraft 1 are the plays of E noob. please dont do starcraft 1, your analysis is poopoo. Understand the game before you commentate it. Play the game and understand it similarly to Day9. We have enough people that dont understand the game and commentate. you come off as a guy desperate for E-Fame. Put some effort into your commentary and you will slowly but surely be famous, however, if you do these silly analysis videos about another person's channel, youre not going to get anywhere.
Ya the cuts are kind of annoying, but I was amused when "This, GAME, HAS, ME, HOOKED!!!! *angry face, rage hands* ... *touches self seductively*" haha I did chuckle Keep them coming!
its not like you even used them to change anything, its just fucking annoying. its not cool or unique and it doesnt add anything. every youtube video these days feels the need to use these and i dont understand why. i've never once seen someone say "wow dude excellent use of jump cuts it really transformed your video!"
dunno, just seems like its the editting equivalent of "omg so random" 12 year olds. "OMG COOKIE SPORK PENGUIN OF DOOOOM" type shit/
I think softcutting is generally accepted on YouTube as a way to capture and maintain the audience's attention. Most people click a video and leave within seconds due to adhd, and this trend of softcutting has been shown to keep people on the videos.
The majority of top youtubers: raywilliamjohnson, nigahiga, kevjumba, etc etc all use soft cuts.
Anyways, I have always maintained that idra is one immature kid with bad temper who is bad at starcraft (considering how much time he has spent in Korea). I have absolutely no respect for him.

This is like the most useless comment I could ever imagine. Do you think Rekrul is some Youtube analyst or life coach? Like should I go around to the 97% (Arbitrary.) of comments that are users' opinions and reply "Subjective."?

Risky, good sir. I commend your bravery.
On the topic of the video - was mildly entertaining, but I never am too keen on just youtube rant videos.

I know I was sweating balls thinking about it last night. Thought I was going to wake up to a Chill ban hammer.
I don't really/likehowyou/ edit these, but the most interesting thing of all is that you type ask though you were editing a video of your post.

Once I'd seen your video it became impossible not to see this post as being full of little cuts.

I'm going mad here.
I type how I speak. Everyone in forums have always given me a very hard time about it. Its just the way my brain works-- sorry for you.. but not really!
I have a new video-- on my channel, but I am not going to create a new blog post for it.
It is essentially me, just responding to the majority of the criticism I found in this forum. Also-- everything I do, and say is very tongue in cheek. So try not to flip a bird if I addressed your comment in the video.
Its hard to control my emotions-- like I said in another post.. I am quick tempered-- hence why I tell most people I know not to take my anger too seriously. I was angry at the time I made the video-- but it quickly passes.
You can almost see me cooling down and calming myself down half way through the video. It might be funny to watch, but try keeping a girlfriend for more than a few months.. LOL.
You definitely don't deserve 2/3 of the negativity that you get, even if some videos you've posted weren't as informative it wasn't bad either, I usually watch all the videos in you blogs and I've played plenty of bw in my life, don't care for the indepth strategic insight here.
Anyways, these videos are all getting better, keep making them, I'm enjoying watching them atleast! Don't really care if you soft cut or not, doesn't bother :p

I wanted to PM a banling but it cracked me up too much too lol.
and then there is the fact that right after I saw ur comment
Anyways, I think softcutting is ok as for ADHD kids(like myself but I fight it a lot of the time when I'm not on the internet unless I'm watching a video) because they just leave videos after calling them dum and boring because they didn't keep them interested with lots of action throughout the whole thing.
I actually still like your videos after watching the most recent one hehe, you are a funny guy to just watch and listen to haha. And you did a lot better this time with the soft cuts, it was much easier to watch! Keep posting please, I'm thinking about subscribing (and I rarely subscribe to anything just so you know, )
No real need to subscribe-- my game play videos are pretty much just for the hardcore people-- I plan on keeping my blog updated with stuff just relevant to TL and its users. I pride myself on being the most awesome, at being-- average.
Edit: Hardcore people (meaning) Guys who can stand my ranting about everyday life, and watching me get my ass kicked in almost every game, and then getting even more angry.
Although you probably have little interest in many of the TL topics (ones that take some sort of intellectual thought), it'd be funny if you could skim some of the discussions and take 'interest', bring to light things unseen, or simply do what you're already doing and complain about them or even hate on me for requesting this bullshit. I would watch. Just a suggestion. Actually I'll watch regardless. lol.

I could do that-- hahah, as long as they don't ban hammer me for speaking my mind.
Yeah I dont want to tell you what to do bro. lol. I'm not real life buds with many people here, so I dn if they would cry about being crapped on lol. I would hope so. Cause fuck you. yeah.
